To Our Patients and Parents,
We have just received our first shipment of the Moderna COVID vaccines, 20 doses for 6 months to 11 years and 10 doses for 12 years and older. We shall place additional orders based on the demand from our patients and parents. In addition, we have been vaccinating children against influenza. For infants under 8 months of age, we also offer the RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) monoclonal antibody, which can protect against RSV for about 5 months with a single injection.
Please call our office and schedule an appointment.
We recognize that some parents are still hesitant about the safety and necessity of the COVID and influenza vaccines, based on what they had seen on the internet and in the news. For those who are interested, the following web sites are worth reading:
We are also excited to announce the arrival of our new behavioral health clinician, Tracy-Jane Pierre, LICSW. She will be available to see patients on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. If your child has anxiety, depression, school phobia, ADHD, or any behavioral concerns, please discuss with your primary care provider and consider scheduling an appointment with Tracy-Jane.
Yours truly,
Pediatric Associates of Malden
